Why Isn’t There a Solar Eclipse Every Month (when there should be)
In this animation we are out in space looking into the celestial mechanics of the moon and earth, and what has to happen for the sun to be blocked out. And more importantly, why eclipses are so rare if the moon gets between the earth and sun once a month! Hope you enjoy

    What gives detached rocket boosters sufficient _horizontal_ momentum relative to the earth, to achieve orbit instead of falling down?

    Where does the second stage engine go then?

  • @stuartgray5877
    @stuartgray5877 7 днів тому

    because carrying enough extra hardware to survive reentry and land is mass prohibitive for the second stage. SpaceX cares very little about extra mass on the first stage, but they are very serious about conserving mass on everything from stage 1 up. The first stage can "reenter" with no extra heat shielding. The second stage would require a lot of heat shield.

    Hi, I really love your content 🤩 Would you be interested to talk about the physics behind my circular swing of #travelingrings ? On the one hand, when we swing inside (and thus pull outside) the polygonal setting, our arc of motion isn’t leveled and use a mix of centripetal energy and potential energy (similar to the consequence of the retrograde burn). On the other hand, when we swing outside (and thus pull inside) the polygonal setting, our arc of motion could be either leveled if we glide circular at the right speed (similar to perfectly circular orbit) or waved due to the potential energy transferring in kinetic energy if we glide elliptical at a greater speed (similar to the consequence of the prograde burn). I’d love to simply evaluate the difficulty of a setting according to the length (of strap) and spacing (distance between rings) for polygonal apparatus and most of all visualize the different types of swing in such an awesome video as you can edit them 💯 Best regards from Stuttgart, John

    The 6-month transfer described in the video is not actually the minimum delta-v Hohmann trajectory. The Hohmann transer would take about 9 months. The 6-month transfer already has a trajectory that intersects rather than touches the Mars orbit. The reason the 6-month transfer is favored for a manned mission is that it allows for a free return in case something goes wrong during the mission and the crew decides to return without landing on Mars.

    You can convert between horsepower and watts by multiplying by 746 (approximately). This is easy to remember because it's 1/2 of the year Columbus discovered America. 1492/2 = 746.

    Nice video, but there are some pretty big mistakes which stops me from sharing it. At 3:00, the prograde and retrograde vectors are inverted. At 4:17, you start saying why not burning at Earth, and you then explain the radial out burn, also with a wrong illustration, showing radial in. 4:50, you describe radial in, but the illustration shows radial out.

    • @nsa45-bp5lv
      @nsa45-bp5lv Місяць тому

      Not only that, but some of them are partial-only when the umbra goes just over or just under the earth and only the penumbra is visible. One of these is happening next spring. Some parts of Quebec I think get up to like a 90% partial but nobody gets a total. As stated in the video, if the moon is not within a few days of perigee at new moon when it is near a node, it will be too small to cover the sun and you'll get an annular eclipse like in 2023 in the parts of the US. There are even hybrid eclipses where it switches between annular and total over the path.

    And let's not forget oribital precession, meaning the time in which the moon crosses the lunar nodes, isn't exactly the same either. How much of a difference that precession causes I do not know, I just know that it plays a role, even if it is small.

      They do, though most happen in remote places such as the oceans, Antarctica, and way up north in Canada and Russia where practically no one lives. None of these are total eclipses, and nobody even bothers to talk about something no one or very few people will witness.
